I'm going to guess Fairfax County Parkway in the wee hours of the morning.

But Doug, I love my Prius! It gets 50 MPG and makes me feel like Kimi fighting the F14T when I drive more than 50mph with an open window!
I think he only did one. I can't find the live race feed I was following at the time (thanks ESPN...) but I believe he said over the radio that he had flat-spotted one tire and came in on his next lap.
He did that after all the talk of tire management? That CANNOT be good for his tires!
My grandparents have the orange. Gotta say the real car looks so much better. I'd drive it like crazy, but never really cared for the Matchbox version.
BBQ Exchange happens to be right on my route from home (C-ville) to parents (Fredericksburg). It's a wonderful stopping point. I'll have to check out Paulie's Pig Out.
Are there any good places to rent vintage cars for a day or two around Charlottesville? I noticed your tweet to BBQ Exchange and that got me thinking about some plans I have for next year...
For the most part, the campus tours are a bit detached from actual life at UVa. (I wanted to say something about the students that lead the tours, but it'd be a pretty broad, unfair generalization, so I'm going to skip that...) The talking points for each tour are standardized and one complaint from current students…
Just don't go more than 10 over and you should be fine. If you want to drive more than 10 over, commute in NoVA at 5am. Though I did see two people pulled over today...

I know I'm late to the game, but I didn't see this on here...
PG, I thought you were up in NYC. Looks like this test took place in my backyard!
Congrats! Burnouts in a SRT8 sounds fun! I'm personally hoping for something classic and British, so burnouts probably won't be good. Worst comes to worse, we may get an S2000, but I'll let my (soon to be) wife do burnouts in that!
My Final Four:
I forgot to state where I'd drive it! Well, after making a run to the grocery store, I'd take off for the Blue Ridge Parkway and the wonder that is Shenandoah National Park. I might also try to finagle my way onto a nearby airstrip from the '40s, or head to VIR.
I couldn't help but try to go small, so I went with a 228i. Optioned to have heated seats (because I'm cold!), black SensaTec, Valencia Orange paint (the first 2002 I saw was in that color, and it's fantastic on all cars), wood trim, because the brushed aluminum and silver looked kinda cheap to me, and of course, the…
How has your Jewish heritage affected and influenced your comedy acts, especially Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee?
Reminds me of the BMW Z roadsters.
Huh. I'd been using the weather channel app, but I definitely prefer the look of the MS one. I just hadn't noticed one put out by MS
What weather app is that?
Definitely preferred the W123, but both are good.
